In the past, there have been rumors of a fight between Logan Paul and Mike Tyson. Many fans wanted Logan to fight another legend after the YouTuber impressed many with his fight against Floyd Mayweather. Back when these rumors were running rampant, Keemstar, owner of DramaAlert, voiced his opinion on the matter.
Logan Paul vs Mike Tyson!
STOP!
Tyson is 54 years old Logan will hurt him & there will be nothing epic , cool, great about it. It’s damn shame if this happens. Mike Tyson is a legend do NOT support this fight. Logan wants free clout , glory & $ for beating up a old guy. #Shame pic.twitter.com/wuzcG5ZrzX
